Dungeness crab (Metacarcinus magister) is a species of crab that is found along the Pacific coast of North America, from Alaska to California. They are named after the coastal town of Dungeness in Washington state, where they were first commercially harvested in the late 1800s.

The Dungeness crab (Metacarcinus magister) makes up one of the most important seafood industries in the range it inhabits along the west coast of North America. It typically grows 20 cm (7.9 in) across and inhabits eelgrass beds and sandy bottoms.

Dungeness crabs can typically be purchased either live or cooked. A humane way to kill a live crab is to: 1) stun the crab by submerging it in ice water for several minutes, 2) flip the crab onto its back, and 3) drive the tip of a small pick about an inch below the center of its mouth.
